Nous: the concept store created by former Colette employees

Goodbye Colette and hello Nous. Former employees from the concept-store open their own address on January 8, 2018. This new place sets up in rue Cambon, just next to their former workplace.

Many are those who cried when Colette closed. Paris most famous concept store closed on December 18, 2017 for a simple reason. Colette couldn’t exist without Colette, its founder, who retired. But, here’s a big surprise, the mourning is finally not this long for the store enthusiasts. Not far from the famous shop covered in the emblematic blue (that becomes a Yves Saint-Laurent), a new spot opens: Nous. Let’s go at 48 rue Cambon.

This brand-new concept store is like the spiritual heir of Colette. And for good reason, it’s created by former employees of the famous store. Instead of what we now call Colette Blue, black and white. The logo, a fingerprint. And its name, Nous [Us]. We find the minimalist style that created the spirit of Colette. But be careful! Colette is Colette! And Nous is Nous!

So, unlike Colette, Nous won’t do women ready-to-wear nor beauty products. Don’t expect to find a water bar either. But, in this new 150-sqm address, you’ll find high-tech, optical, clocks and watches, books as well as street wear and sneakers. Nous seems to become an urban style temple.

Meet on January 8, 2018 at 11 a.m. for the kick off of what we expect to be the new Colette.
